The celebrity lecture hall of Huizhou University is the event with the largest number of participants, and those who have come here in the past are some well-known academic experts, celebrities from all walks of life, and of course, there are alumni of Huizhou University. Of course, this issue of the celebrity lecture hall is still hot, the entire venue is full, and even some later students are sitting on the steps.

Zhong Yue was also a little surprised to see so many people in the background. He didn't expect that the students would be so enthusiastic, because of him, it caused a lot of sensation in Hui University, it seems that so long has passed, and the power of the "chicken steak tycoon" has not diminished back then.

"Today, we have invited an alumnus of our Hui University. He is now the spokesperson of Hui ink, the creation of a little lacquer ink industry in just a few years has become the leader in the ink industry, he is our inheritor of Chinese calligraphy and painting, everyone must be no stranger to the sensational "Zhong Family Letter", well, next, let us solemnly welcome, President of the East China Young Artists Alliance, Mr. Zhong Yue. ”

Zhong Yue walked out, and the scene ushered in a round of warm applause.

"Is this Senior Zhong Yue? ”

"I heard that I just graduated, and I'm really young and promising. ”

Zhong Yue's eyes swept underneath, slowly walked to the podium, coughed lightly twice, and said with a smile: "Facing the classmates who have eaten, drunk and had fun, I am afraid that this is the most nervous time I have been on stage." ”

There was a burst of laughter from below, and he was moved by Zhong Yue's humorous opening.

"Let's get down to business. It is a great honor for our principal to invite me to give this speech, because it should be a meaningful sharing to be able to talk about some of the things I have experienced on the road of calligraphy and painting art in front of my former classmates and teachers at my alma mater.

This is a pluralistic era, in this era, now the concept of science and technology and traditional culture have collided and blended, and we have more choices and ideals. When it comes to calligraphy and painting, many of you may think that these are not elegant arts that ordinary people will come into contact with, and think that I should go to the Huizhou Academy of Fine Arts next door to talk about these contents, then everyone is wrong.

Most of the calligraphers in history, they did not want to become calligraphers, they engaged in this ancient art for this purpose, they were also like everyone, they also had their own professions, some were officials, some were landlords, some were monks, but maybe they were writing songs, maybe they were entertaining guests, recording banquets, or perhaps, when they were copying scriptures, they inadvertently completed masterpieces that have been passed down through the ages.

Our neighboring countries, probably the countries where you have heard the most about me before, have far more people in contact with calligraphy than us, and this ancient art has penetrated into the real culture of Chinese culture in their countries, and this is the real inheritance, not the superficial.

The reason why we want to establish the East China Young Artists Alliance is precisely for this reason, our young generation, to change the current atmosphere of the domestic calligraphy and painting industry, everyone is a calligrapher, a Chinese painter, such a cardinal consciousness, to penetrate into the hearts of every Chinese people, these require our unremitting efforts and struggle!"

There was a round of applause from the audience, and they were all infected by Zhong Yue's non-greasy and master-carrying demeanor.

"Do you have any questions for Senior Zhong Yue?"

Quite a few people raised their hands from the sidelines.

"Okay, this classmate, yes, it's you, this male classmate in white and blue checkered. ”

"Senior Zhong Yue, I would like to ask, can anyone from any profession participate in this East China Young Artists Alliance?"

Zhong Yue said with a smile: "Yes, as long as you are keen on art careers related to calligraphy and painting, you can sign up." We will have relevant assessments, and generally if you don't have any foundation, you will learn your favorite art for free in the form of sunshine volunteers. ”

"Will Senior Zhong Yue participate in teaching?"

Zhong Yue paused and said with a smile: "Of course." I will devote myself to painting and calligraphy education with a more enthusiastic attitude. ”

There was a warm applause from the audience again.

"This classmate. ”

"Thank you, Senior Zhong Yue, why do you want to make such a union-like alliance, and is there any special significance?"

Zhong Yue smiled slightly, nodded and said: "There is no shortage of masters in this era, the reason why I will strengthen my belief step by step to make such an alliance is that it is under the continuous encouragement of a group of masters that I stand in front of everyone, so the development of calligraphy to this day is not the credit of one person, but the crystallization of countless calligraphers over the past thousand years, such as Chinese painting and sealing." ”

"So, will our calligraphy and Chinese painting crush oil painting?"

Zhong Yue said with a smile: "There is only more brilliance and brilliance in art, as for crushing, do you think that between apples and pears, maybe there is that delicious saying for individuals, but really put together, there are advantages and disadvantages? We carry forward calligraphy, not to compare with anyone, nor to crush the art of other nations, but to continue to carry forward the inheritance of our own nation!"

The applause in the audience came and went.

"Zhong Yue, leave a piece of ink treasure to commemorate this momentous moment. ”

Zhong Yue looked at the four treasures of the study that had been prepared, and knew that he couldn't escape, so he picked up the pen, dipped it in the ink disc, and wrote: "Carry on the past and forge ahead." ”

This sentence is not only a summary of this speech, but also a kind of self-warning for Zhong Yue's long road in the future, which does not know the end, but also the starting point of the journey.

"Okay, good word! In this way, Zhong Yue, the leaders of the academy will go out for dinner in the evening and discuss the matter of effectively implementing this alliance, what do you think?"

Zhong Yue put down his pen and said with a smile: "No." I've just come back and want to have dinner with my family tonight. ”

"Well, let's make an appointment another day. The head of the academy smirked.

Zhong Yue looked at Huida in the twilight, four years ago, he was also standing in this place, looking forward to the future, now, with dreams and hopes, how far can this cradle of artists go?

He can't give an answer to this question, because with the efforts of a generation, it may not be possible to change anything, but as Liu Shao'e said, someone has to do it.

See yourself, see heaven and earth, see all beings.

Zhong Yue stood in the setting sun, and the slanting sun stretched his figure long......
